#1. 4x^2 + 17 - 15 = 0

Use the roots given, and plug them in to a factored form. Then, foil! It can also be helpful to multiply the equation to get rid of decimals/fractions.

(x - 3/4)(x + 5) = 0

x^2 - 3/4x + 5x - 3 3/4 = 0

x^2 + 4.25 - 3.75 = 0 (multiply everything by 4)

4x^2 + 17 - 15 = 0

#2. y = 0, -4

Both 4y^2 and 16y contain a 4 in the coefficient and a y in the variables. Therefore, we can factor out a 4y from each.

4y(y + 4) = 0

Then, set both parts of the factored equation equal to 0.

4y = 0

y = 0

y + 4 = 0

y = -4

#3. a = 0, -3

Both 6a^5 and 18a^4 contain a 6 in the coefficient and an a in the variables. Therefore, we can factor out a 6a^4 from each.

6a^4(a + 3) = 0

Then, set both parts of the factored equation equal to 0.

6a^4 = 0

a = 0

a + 3 = 0

a = -3

#4. x = -8

We are looking for two terms that multiply to equal a * c, and add up to equal b. We know that 8 + 8 = 16, and 8 * 8 = 64. There are no negatives in this equation, therefore both signs in our factored form are positive.

(x + 8)(x + 8) = 0

x + 8 = 0

x = -8

#5. x = -8, 8

First, subtract 64 from both sides. The key word here is 'factoring.' If this was not present, there is a different way (which may be easier for some).

x^2 = 64

x^2 - 64 = 0

Next, use the difference of two squares property to factor (x - c)(x + c), and set the two binomials equal to 0.

(x - 8)(x + 8) = 0

x - 8 = 0

x = 8

x + 8 = 0

x = -8

Hope this helps!! :)

Each side of the smaller square in the figure below is n inches long, and each side of the larger square is p inches longer than

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

2np + p²

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for the area of a square is A = s², where s = the length of one side of the square. In the case of the smaller square the area would be: n x n = n². Since the side of the larger square is 'p' inches longer, the length of one side is 'n + p'. To find the area of the larger square, we have to take the length x length or (n +p)².

Using FOIL (forward, outside, inside, last):

(n + p)(n+p) = n² + 2np + p²

Since the area of the first triangle is n², we can subtract this amount from the area of the larger square to find out how many square inches greater the larger square area is.

n² + 2np + p² - n² = 2np + p²

Solve the quadratic equation by factoring. 9x^2+24x+20=4

const2013 [10]

D. -4/3

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

9x2+24x+20=4

Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides.

9x2+24x+20−4=4−4

9x2+24x+16=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

(3x+4)(3x+4)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

3x+4=0 or 3x+4=0

x= −4 /3

Hope This helps

Match each scenario involving projectile motion with the equation that describes the height of the object at time t. Tiles h = -

olga55 [171]

Answer:

h = -16t^2 + 73t + 5
h = -16t^2 + 5
h = -4.9t^2 + 73t + 1.5
h = -4.9t^2 + 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation we use for ballistic motion is ...

$h(t)=\frac{1}{2}gt^2+v_0t+h_0$

where g is the acceleration due to gravity, v₀ is the initial upward velocity, and h₀ is the initial height.

The values of g commonly used are -32 ft/s², or -4.9 m/s². Units are consistent when the former is used with velocity in ft/s and height in feet. The latter is used when velocity is in m/s, and height is in meters.

_____

Dwayne throws a ball with an initial velocity of 73 feet/second. Dwayne holds the ball 5 feet off the ground before throwing it. (h = -16t^2 + 73t + 5)

A watermelon falls from a height of 5 feet to splatter on the ground below. (h = -16t^2 + 5)

Marcella shoots a foam dart at a target. She holds the dart gun 1.5 meters off the ground before firing. The dart leaves the gun traveling 73 meters/second. (h = -4.9t^2 + 73t + 1.5)

Greg drops a life raft off the side of a boat 1.5 meters above the water. (h = -4.9t^2 + 1.5)

_____

Additional comment on these scenarios

The dart and ball are described as being launched at 73 units per second. Generally, we expect launches of these kinds of objects to have a significant horizontal component. However, these equations are only for vertical motion, so we must assume the launches are straight up (or that the up-directed component of motion is 73 units/second).
